Toward the Big Blur: State Governance of a Unified Education-to-Workforce System That Works for Everyone
Cuevas, Erica
Jobs for the Future
Jobs for the Future's (JFF) vision for the Big Blur calls for entirely new educational institutions and systems to better prepare 16-to-20-year-olds for college and careers. This paper examines the new type of governance needed to help states create more effective grade 11-14 schools and systems by erasing the arbitrary dividing line between high school and college to open opportunities for the learners the current systems leave behind. JFF makes the case for an entirely new type of public institution, neither high school nor college, designed to better meet the needs of 16-to-20-year-olds by enabling them to earn a postsecondary credential and prepare for a career--free of charge.
